unusual facts about C. C. Rider



Canobie Lake Park

"Skater" took up some of the removed Rockin' Rider site, but has since been moved to the old location of the "Paratroopers" ride (which will be sold and has been removed from the park).

John F. Rider

The other and probably the best reason that force the end of John F. Rider, Publisher Inc, was that Howard W. Sams Publishing or SAMS Publishing of Indianapolis, IN developed and copyrighted the PhotofactTM service folder that had all the things that Rider provided but added large photographs to identify the parts along with much better written servicing instructions.

Furthermore SAMS Publishing released service notes by folder number (containing specific makes and models) not large bound volumes, making it easier to purchase servicing information.
